Newspapers The biggest Portuguese-language daily newspapers are Jornal do Brasil (www.jbonline.com.br) and O Globo (www.globo.com.br), both from Rio, and O Estado de São Paulo (www.estadao.com.br) and Folha de São Paulo (www.folha.uol.com.br), out of São Paulo. The weekly Veja (www.veja.abril.com.br) is a current-affairs magazine, and in Rio and São Paulo it comes with a good pullout guide to what’s happening locally. For English-language news in Rio, check out the Rio Times (www.riotimesonline.com).

TV Programming revolves around sports, comedy shows and the nightly telenovelas (soap operas); O Globo is the largest nationwide TV network. Brazil uses the PAL system for video/DVD.
